BuddyPress.org

I too am having this issue with 1.6.1 release version. Didn’t occur prior to upgrading. I’m also on WordPress 3.4.1.

There’s another plugin I’ve just found:

Quick Flag

There’s at least 2 plugins for wordpress that handle flags according visitors IP to do some function. I guess one of them makes use of shortcodes to put anywhere (posts, pages, widgets) to display some visitors country flag.

Ipgp User Country Flag
The plugin will show your visitors their country flag, based on their IP Address. You can add it as a widget to your sidebar, using a shortcode in your post or pages or directly in your template trough template tags.

Maybe you can go with this one, If you do I’ll be glad to know how did you solve it.

Thanks for the confirmation that it should work out of the box. I was puzzled why recently it didn’t work for forum posts but activity streams only.
I did the usual disable all plugins and test one by one in case of a plugin conflict.
I can confirm that the Buddypress Rate Forum Posts plugin is the culprit

After disabling this, video embedding now works. Will post feedback to the author.

BuddyPress Extended Settings by @modemlooper can change the default. This is an excellent plugin with many useful settings. Get it here:

BP FriendPress can filter activity dependent on friendships so basically it has the ability to show only yours and your friends activity like facebooks wall. Just make sure to read the readme.txt. Get it here:

Hi,

I’m having the exact same problem. I installed Buddypress today. After installing the BP Template Pack, when you click on the links to check your pages, you still are not taken to the registration page. Your redirected to your site’s home page. This is the third such query I’ve read on your forums trying to work my way through similar forum topics and none of those threads have answered the problem as I’ve tried all the suggestions.

I checked my pages and there is actually a registration.php page created in my pages, but when I navigate to that page , it just bounces to the home page as the gentleman says above.

I have been into my Settings > Membership and checked if the “Allow Registration” is checked. It is and was checked to allow for registration before I installed Buddypress. Still nothing. As I havn’t gone through the processes of every running a wordpress based community before I’m only familiar with the Login area at the backend of WordPress. This is not an area I would want my site users to see and I’m aware that I can install whitelabel plugins to pimp that area myself but I expected that Buddypress would somehow have a front end login and registration area already wrapped up in the plugin.

Could someone please enlighten me about getting my registration link working. My site is here:

http://www.thebridesboudoir.com/

I’m WPSU not MU. I’ve followed all instructions as best I can and seem to be getting nowhere. I’ve adjusted all my template files to correspond with my current theme, it would be so nice to get the rest of Buddypress working. I’m sure it’s a great plugin and I’ve worked most of the day on forums and buddypress, but a little frustrated with the registration hiccup.

RE: Forum Installation from your links. You click and are taken to install bbPress, but then have to delete the automatically created forum.php created by Buddypress in order to install bbPress forums correctly. Later in the processes of trying to get bbPress templates tweaked to match my theme I’m told I can make Group Forums, but when I come over to the buddypress panel it states in your documentation to look for bb-config.php (or something similar) but there is no config file of any name (or nothing with the word config in it) when you look through all the bbPress package or folders after install. As a consequence I cannot now install Group Forums as I don’t know the path to the bbPress config file – it seems not to exist? I’ve used the latest version downloaded from wordpress.org for both plugins, Newly downoaded today.

Thanks for help in advance.

Look at the WordPress functions
Is_user_logged_in and get_currentuserinfo

What version WP & BP are you using? What theme are you using? Is it a child theme or did you use the buddypress template pack plugin with a wordpress theme? It will be easier to get help when you provide the mentioned information!

Yes, and Yes! The BP Profile Search plugin has not been updated to show current but it still works.

Tener un buen día!

I am having a hard time replicating this and I just updated one of my test servers from WP 3.3.1 and BP 1.5.5 to WP 3.4.2 and BP 1.6.1 and it works perfectly if you go to youtube click the share button and copy and paste that code into the content section after you have created a new forum topic. Why do you need an oembed plugin anyway. Auto embed is already built in to WordPress? Go to dashboard/settings/media and under Embeds make sure the box beside Auto-embeds is checked.

@guitaragora Open up permalink.php from wp-content/themes/wallbase/members/single/activity/permalink.php
